Some sources make it sound like he lead the charge back to field camps, but recent developments make me wonder. Is it possible he actually was captured and made to give orders under duress?

yes he has sent an audio message:
https://www.dw.com/en/wagner-groups-prigozhin-releases-1st-message-since-mutiny/a-66036841
what he is saying is totally bullshit: he says he didn’t want to overthrow putler but during the coup he said “there will be a new president soon” after putler called him a traitor
An audio message does not count. He could have a gun to his head. It could be a deepfake, even.

I may be incorrect about the timing, but I’m pretty sure he was photographed at the airport in Rostov-on-Don, after the deal was announced and supposedly on his way to Belarus.
Ah! Here’s some reliable-looking coverage! Thanks for the clue, good job.
So I’m back to not knowing WTF is going on. There’s no way he’d agree to something on just Putin’s word.

Yeah I don’t get it either.
